It seems like only yesterday that Sony slapped an exciting new number onto the PlayStation, but we're shockingly close to the PlayStation 5's three-year anniversary. Considering how new PS5 stock still sells out in a matter of seconds, consider yourself lucky if you managed to score this red-hot, next-gen console.

They may not all be exclusives, but with 4K visuals and lightning-fast SSD load times, our list of the best PlayStation 5 games will make you happy leapedeapt into the next generation.
